The New York Tribune Is showing, In its
editorial columns, that at last 1t compre-
hends the financial situation and the folly
Of attempting to improve the condition OF
sfrairs by letting Wall street turn the
United States Treasury Department into
annex of the exchange. 1t sald yesterday :
For weeks 1t was predicted that the unloc =
ing of money by the treasury and the settl e.
ment of the Baltimore and Ohio matter won
cause strong rally in prices Last week 1t
became known that the treasury had added
sS2,000,000 TO the circulation in single mont :,
and.that the Western Union had absorbed the
Baltimore and Ohio telegraph. But stocks de-
c!ned sl.e5 per share, heavy selling on foreign
account being reported to the close of the
week. Particularly gloomy accounts 1.-THE
injury to the cotton crop were industriously
sent north, but the price slightly declined.
Elaborate accounts OF injury to the British and
French wheat crops were published, but wheat
advanced only quarter of a cent AS activity
in speculation does not help any legitim ate
business, neither producers. consumers, nor
merchants have occasion to regret that clr-
cumstances which were expected to bring
about great speculative excitement have as
yet done nothing OF the sort.

writtaA a most scathing letter, and given II
10 the public, In which he gives his reasons
for quitting the Democratic party, and an
rounces his intention Of hereafter voting
and working with the Republicans. The
only wonder is that a man possessing the
sense TO wiite such a letter as that written
by Mr.. Linney did not quit the Democratic
party long ago. In closing, Mr.. Llnney
says:
! have never given Republican vote
have no hcsitancy in saying, however, that the
work of the Republican party at any time, in
MY opinion, since the close of the war has
tCCn characterized with more intelligence
and patriotism than that of the Democratic
administration since Cleveland's election, ana
MS choice Of evils the Republican is prefer.

the Republican party unless the Democracy
turns Democratic, | expect no office from them
They have no slop tubs for me to guard. lido
this from the full conviction that 1t Is duty

TO stop the misrule of the enemy in disguise

Another Bond Offer.

The Secretary of the Treasury yesterday
purchased $4,000 a per cent. bonds under
the terms OF the recent circular. The post
mark on the envelope containing the bonds
showed that they had been mailed 10 reach
Washington by Saturday but had been de-
layed. The Secretary concluded that the
offer was made In good faith and that the
delay was due TO no fault Of the sender.
This spurchase will not materially affect the
total purchases as ct ted Saturday evening
for the reason that the Secretary allowed
the withdrawal OF one or two offers aggre.
eating about the same amount which II
was shown had been made without proper
authority.

SILVER sold last week in New York at
so cents per ounce of $50 grains, which
makes the silver necessary to coin a stand
ard dollar cost s24 cents. And yet the
administration wiH not purchase the silver
authorized by law, and coin 1t for the ben
eft Of the people. The Independent said
there was no way by which the surplus
could be released from the treasury except
by the purchase OF bonds at premium
Here is one way to release $4,000, 900 at
orcc, and by coming the silver purchased
make apront to the government OF Sl0,5iO,-

In New York and elsewhere would not

The Secretary OF the Treasury, In his
last official report, that IS, the debt state
ment for rhe month Of September, admits
that there is 10 the treasury $42l ,OO8, ,4s2 In
actual cash which could be applied to the
reduction OF the public debt. The Income
is more than Sl0,OO0OO0 per month above
the expenses, and yet the administration
does not use dollar OF this immense sum,
but boards 1t whilst the country s suffering
for the want Of money. Wellington, at the
battle of Waterloo, exclaimed: "Oh, for
night or Blucher." "BluCher" came and
the map OF Europe was altered. The peo-
pie OF the United States can we'll exclaim:
ooh, for Wlnlom or one like him."
